What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 233 This is called a Big Shot!



The layout of Tengda remained the same as before, with an open centralized office area right after the entrance, where the salaried lawyers and intern lawyers usually stayed. No matter the time, there would always be someone present, ensuring that clients could be received the moment they walked in. Therefore, when the girl walked in and said a sentence, a woman lawyer dressed in a professional skirt suit immediately approached with a smile and said, "Of course, no problem, please come this way." In this regard, Old Wang and many others liked to play some tricks, such as making sure the lawyers or legal assistants ready to receive clients at the door were among the best looking in the firm. Yes, that's right, even though being a lawyer isn't about looks, the ultimate goal of a lawyer is still sales. At the very least, they needed to ensure a good first impression. Otherwise, if they looked like a lumpy burlap sack, clients wouldn't even want to talk, and there would be no starting point for discussion. It's like our educational background; everyone says it's not important, but it's the foot in the door. Without it, you can't even get through the threshold. As for men receiving female clients, don't even think about it. No matter the game, you must check if the version is right; don't mess with it if it's not the dominant version. Otherwise, considering how popular Tengda currently is, who knows how many law firms would want to give it a black eye. Business warfare isn't as noble as it seems; they'll use any sleazy tactic that can tarnish your reputation. However, the lawyer who stood up this time was Yan Xueling. Yes, she was still a salaried lawyer. Some people just aren't cut out for marketing, lacking the ability, they can only live on a fixed salary. Miss Xiao Yan carefully led the female client to an independent office on the side and then asked, "Hello, may I ask what you need advice on?" This office was shared among everyone. Whenever there was a client, they would be brought in for a talk. The most important thing for a lawyer is to ensure the client's privacy, especially in marital disputes. While speaking, she took the opportunity to observe the client. The woman looked quite pretty, the kind that appeared especially pitiable. The girl who came in looked back. The office door had already closed, but hesitation still lingered on her face. Miss Xiao Yan spoke again, "Miss, first let me remind you that consultations at Tengda are charged. If you are willing to proceed..." "Also, our law firm must strictly protect our clients' privacy, so feel free to speak about anything you need to discuss." After repeated persuasions from Miss Xiao Yan, the girl finally spoke up. "I, my name is Li Wei, I... I used to be pursued by a man who was great in every aspect, so I got together with him. Then I found out that he was already married and even had children, but..." "But I don't want to break up with him. I want him to divorce his wife and be with me..." It was evident that Li Wei was trembling while she spoke all this. After all, being a mistress was one thing, but to let others know was another. However, Miss Xiao Yan kept a professional smile on her face... joking, of course. She had been at Tengda for years, not for nothing. She had seen too many outrageous cases. A mistress was nothing new. Indeed, her face possessed that kind of eligibility, Miss Xiao Yan thought to herself. A mistress seeking a lawyer to divide the original spouse's assets wasn't a novel case. As long as you paid, lawyers would naturally take on the case. That's just the nature of the profession. However, what Li Wei said next caused Miss Xiao Yan to freeze. "Four months ago, I... I accidentally got pregnant. We argued many times. At first, he said he would divorce and then marry me, but I found he hadn't taken any actions at all." At this point, Li Wei involuntarily touched her belly, clearly showing a mix of complex emotions. "Just half a month ago, he came to see me and suggested that I should have an abortion, saying that he can't possibly divorce, that I should give up hope!" "I went to his house to confront him, but his wife threw me out the door, and he wouldn't even look at me." "I finally realized, he was just toying with me from the start..." Miss Xiao Yan nearly reached for a bag of popcorn at this juicy tale; she found herself inexplicably enjoying these kinds of melodramatic plotlines. But she was still puzzled about what the other party wanted to consult on. Was it about leveraging the baby to claim a share of the man's assets? Upon reflection, that seemed to be the only reason to consult a lawyer, right? While Miss Xiao Yan was contemplating this, Li Wei's pitiful face had now become fraught with anger, "I could never have dreamed I would meet such a scumbag. He deceived me, took everything from me!" "I don't want his money now; I have only one thought in mind, to see him in jail, to make that beast pay!" This shift was a bit too sudden, and Miss Xiao Yan was a bit slow to respond. After a pause, Miss Xiao Yan still managed to say, "Please calm down a bit. So you are still pregnant, and you want... that man to go to jail?" "But, this is a law firm, not the police department." Lawyers don't have that kind of power. If wanting someone to go to jail was all it took, there wouldn't be so many clients behind on their legal fees...
